How do you make an ancient object tell its story?

Join Professor Florian Knothe, Director of the University Museum and Art Gallery (UMAG), for an exclusive workshop on the art of curation. This session explores how to use object-based exhibitions to develop a unique ‘curatorial voice’ and communicate powerful narratives to the public.

 

This is a rare opportunity to learn the craft of storytelling through objects directly from a leading expert in the museum field.

 


Learning Outcomes:

– Develop a ‘curatorial voice’ to create impactful exhibition narratives.

– Learn practical methods to interpret objects and communicate their stories effectively.
